Fun times in Florida




We have just returned from a week's stay down in sunny, warm Florida. I must stress the "warm" part as we are having extremely bitter cold temperatures here in Kentucky. I think the high today is going to be 10 degrees with a wind chill of zero? Our trip went well and it was good to see family and friends while we were there. The first part of our trip was spent in Tampa. We spent some time with Nana Benson and family and got to eat our favorite Cuban food with her. The Florida College lectureship was going on the week we were there and Jeff's 20 year reunion was Monday night. Krysta and Natalie stayed on campus a couple of nights and enjoyed that. We headed over to Orlando on Wednesday for the remainder of the trip. We spent an evening at Downtown Disney, did some shopping, saw the Atlantis Shuttle take off, went to Cocoa Beach, and finally made it to the Magic Kingdom on Friday. We all enjoyed Disney but Jake especially liked all the characters and even rode his first roller coaster right off the bat. Mommy was more scared for him than he was.

Looks like fun. Abby has been after us to go back to Disney World. I think now it would be closer to go to Disney Land. Glad it was good weather for your trip.

I am not liking the sound of that weather you are having--we are in the 50's and sunny.I sure hope it changes for the better before the 22nd!!! Glad you had a good trip.
